1989 Taylor 515W in natural finish, serial #8404. This dreadnought features a spruce top with mahogany back and sides, and is part of Taylor's early 500 Series offerings from the late 1980s. The guitar is very clean, showing little to no signs of playwear or fret wear.

The Taylor 515W represents an early example of Taylor's refined craftsmanship and balanced tonal design. Built before the company's widespread popularity in the 1990s, this pre-NT neck model reflects Taylor's commitment to high-quality construction even in its early years. With its mahogany body and spruce top, the guitar offers a warm, focused tone with excellent clarity-ideal for strumming and flatpicking. In exceptionally clean condition for its age, this guitar is a great choice for players and collectors seeking a near-mint Taylor from the brand's formative years.
